Pleasant house and yard

Comfortable house with pleasant outdoor area. Somewhat in need of updating. Carpeting and furniture are old. Carpets were not really clean. Convenient to Encinitas shops and Carlsbad.

Family visit

Great location with easy access to the beach. The hot water heater gave out and we were not able to turn on the heat during the first part of our stay. The owner took care of replacing the hot water heater and thermostat promptly. As others have mentioned there is an unpleasant odor in the garage. Cleanliness and general maintenance seem to be lacking.

Our Special Get-a-way

The property was in a desirable location with easy access to beaches and restauants. The house had 21/2 baths with a bathroom for each bedrooom and one on the first floor. I especially loved the backyard where I was able to unwind and read. I was a bit disappointed with the utensils in the kitchen. They were rusty and not properly cleaned. We were also invaded by ants. Donelle was helpful and responded to any inquiries.

Great location and terrific host!

the place was easy to find despite it being a little hidden away which we liked because there was no competing for parking in this busy area. The house well appointed and nice to have bedrooms upstairs with a nice sized living room downstairs if someone want to go to sleep early. They bikes, and beach gear making it very convenient. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. The host was very easily reachable.

Perfect, relaxing vacation

We enjoyed our stay here. Loved sitting out in the backyard in the evenings enjoying the cooler temps (we are from AZ) and really enjoyed getting out of the heat. Loved the dual Master suites. The property was as advertised and had everything we needed!

Wedding and beach vacay

We were very happy with the house! The only exception was the very smelly garage that smelled strongly of cat pee. But luckily we did not need to spend much time in there. The house was clean with good supplies and decent cookware. The back yard was cute and we would have enjoyed it more in better weather. My son loved the outdoor shower. The living space was cozy and we appreciated the cozy blankets. The carpets could use an upgrade as there were several stains, but the house was otherwise clean and gray smelling and lived up to our hopes!

Meh

House needs some TLC, like a serious deep clean, especially since they allow pets. The smell of synthetic air freshener overwhelmed me as soon as I walked in the door. I found 3 airwick plug-in “air fresheners” in the space and had to unplug and put in the garage as they truly gave me a headache. The sheets were so overwhelming scented with synthetic cheap dryer sheet smell I found myself congested and itchy. I had to run them through a just water cycle in the washer to get the smell out. My husband was congested from the build up of pet dander in the not so clean carpets in the bedrooms and stairwell. This place has potential, as the location is good, it really just needs a serious deep clean, carpets removed and to stop using so much synthetically scented products in the space.

Nice place and great location

We stayed 3 nights - family of 4 with two kids 8 and 10. The house is in a GREAT LOCATION with a short walk to the beach and to restaurants and shops. The amenities were OK. Bring your own soap, shampoo, cooking needs. Not sure if there wasn’t live TV available or if we just didn’t figure it out. We wanted to watch March Madness games and ended up casting them to the TV. Host was very responsive but not flexible on the 10a check out time. Overall very nice stay.

Perfect surf stay near Grandview beach

Fantastic, quiet rental with a fab outdoor area. Loved the outdoor shower. Well stocked with beach stuff, very short walk to Grandview beach. Couldn’t have had a better location. We loved that it wasn’t generic furniture and decorations. Really has the old school surf beach feel, feels like someone’s long-time Leucadian surf house. Four friends staying together , one had to sleep ion the couch as there was a full size or queen bed? and one king bed. Would stay again.
